We are God’s chosen holy nation
We belong to him alone
And may this rising generation
Worship Christ upon his throne
Worship Christ upon his throne
We believe
in God the Father
And in Christ his precious Son
We believe he died to save us
Came to call us as his own
We believe
he sends his Spirit
On us now with gifts of power
Hear the Spirit calling out to us
Where he leads us we will go

I will lift up the name of the Lord
I will lift up the name of the Lord
I will lift up the name of the one who lifted me
He took my feet from the slippery clay
Set them on a solid rock to stay
I will lift up the name of the one who lifted me
Oh I praise
you, Jesus
For you always hear my cry
Every day that you give me breath
I’m gonna lift your name on high

Fly free - Song for Wales
Fly
free, Spirit of God
Fly free, free as a dove
Draw me up in your flights of love
Show me all that you see
Help me to feel what you feel
Reveal the Father’s heart for this land
The Spirit
of God is brooding
Over this land
The Spirit of God is singing
Of the Father’s plans
The Spirit of God is waiting
Longing for the day
When the praises of God
will ring loud and clear once more
The church
of God is stirring
All through this land
The church of God is praying
Lifting holy hands
The church of God is rising
Rising to take her place
Joining heavenly hosts
Singing praises to the Lamb

Give and it shall be given
Oh you can’t out-give the Lord your God
One thing is certain in the Kingdom of heaven
The measure you give is the measure you’ll receive
And
it’ll be pressed down, shaken together
And overflowing (x2)
Don’t rob
God of your firstfruits
Give the most you can and then some more
He longs to open a window from heaven
And pour out a blessing so big you’ll be amazed
God’s building
now his kingdom
And his kingdom’s rule will never end
If you will give him your life, your time, your money
You’ll store up a treasure no-one can steal away

Oh King of love
There is none like you
Almighty God
Lover of this child
Oh and
Jesus you are beautiful
Jesus you are wonderful
The blood you shed
Means I can now go free
Worship
Jesus
Worship
The blood you shed
Means I can now go free

Oh oh oh God
You are my God
And my soul
Is hungry for you
And when I’m dry and tired
It's only you that can satisfy
Because
your love
Is better than life
It will last for ever
It will last forever
And oh your love
Is better than life
It will last for ever
It will last forever
And in
the night
I turn to you
And there I find
You watch over me
And my soul
It clings to you
Cos only you
Can lift me high

Who could have dared to dream it,
Who would have dared to hope?
That the author of creation
Should become as one of us
The God who is everywhere
Chose to be confined
To a moment in history
The birth of a child
And an ocean of love poured out
A fountain of grace sprang up
And the voice of God could be heard in a baby’s cry
Come
to the Peace Child
Let him still your soul
He was the only one
Who could bring hope to this world
As the centuries have passed
and our search for peace goes on
It’s still to be found in the heart of a child
And as
we mark each New Year
We give thanks for the past
For we know our God is faithful
He is worthy of our trust
And through the world’s suffering
Through all the pain
He knows what it feels like
He knew it as a man
And an ocean of love is ours
A fountain of grace still flows
And the voice of God whispers into our hearts once more
Bridge:
Unto us a child is born
Unto us a son is giv’n
He’ll be called Wonderful Counsellor
Mighty God, Eternal Father
Prince of Peace

The depth of a mystery
The turning point of history
The cross of Christ revealed the very heart of God
The searing pain before him
The crushing isolation
Were vivid in his mind
The day before he bore it
As the
hour of his suffering relentlessly drew near
He carefully prepared one last supper for his friends
Pouring the wine, breaking the bread
So we now share at the table of our Lord
And we
do this in remembrance
Of the night he was betrayed
We do this in the knowledge
Of the dreadful price he paid
We will take the cup with our hearts full of love
For the Lamb who once was slain
We will break the bread, longing for the day
When our Christ will return again

Whiter than the snow
Purer than the clearest stream
Wash me and I’ll be
Bathed in purity
I long to feel clean
A robe of righteousness
A robe that I could not afford
My Lord you paid the price
Your perfect sacrifice
Has covered up my shame
And so
I thank you, Jesus
For the sweet forgiveness of the cross
It’s a mystery to amaze even angels
That when Father looks into my heart
He sees me now
As whiter than the snow

Christ before me
Christ above me
Christ beneath me
Christ beside
Christ my vision
Christ my wisdom
Christ my comfort
Christ my guide
I bind
unto myself this day
The strong and holy name
Praise to the mighty God of my salvation
Three in one and one in three
I bind unto myself this day the strong name
Of the holy Trinity

(Based on the breastplate of St Patrick)
In the Spirit I rise, rise
I rise to your call
In the Spirit I rise, rise
I rise up to your call (x2)
I have
put my trust in God
Father, Spirit, Son
When he calls me to come
Then I know I must respond
I rise in the Spirit of love
When things
seem too hard for me
I will not give up
You’re the strength that I need
Power when the flesh is weak
I rise in the Spirit of love
I will
live for you, my Lord
My future’s in your hand
Here’s my life for your plac
Take me Jesus, here I am
I rise in the Spirit of love

Lord help me to tell your story
To those who’ve never heard
How you lived and died for us
You are the way to God
I want
to go, Lord, in your power
Telling the story of your name
I want to say what you said, do what you did
Tell the world the reason you came
Lord help
me to tell my story
Of what you’ve done for me
Give me courage, Lord, to say
How you have set me free
Lord, so
many live in darkness
Lost in an endless night
Help them search and find you, Lord
And fill them with your light
You came down from heaven
Born in a stable
Grew as a child in the wisdom of God
Teaching and preaching
Healing and blessing
Stirring up anger, you died on a cross
Sealed in a tomb
Burst from the grave
Ascended to heaven
And you're coming again
